Experimental corroboration of the Mulheran-Blackman explanation of the scale invariance in thin film growth: the case of InAs quantum dots on GaAs(001)
M. Fanfoni, E. Placidi, F. Arciprete +3
Mulheran and Blackman have provided a simple and clear explanation of the scale invariance of the island size distribution at the early stage of film growth [Phil. Mag. Lett. 72, 5…
How kinetics drives the two- to three-dimensional transition in semiconductor strained heterostructures: the case of InAs/GaAs(001)
F. Arciprete, E. Placidi, V. Sessi +3
The two- to three-dimensional growth transition in the InAs/GaAs(001) heterostructure has been investigated by atomic force microscopy. The kinetics of the density of three dimensi…
Eliminating overgrowth effects in Poisson spatial process through the correlation among actual nuclei
M. Tomellini, M. Fanfoni
It has been shown that the KJMA (Kolmogorov-Johnson-Mehl-Avrami) solution of phase transition kinetics can be set as a problem of correlated nucleation [Phys.Rev.B65, 172301 (2002)…
Beyond the Kolmogorov Johnson Mehl Avrami kinetics: inclusion of the spatial correlation
M. Fanfoni, M. Tomellini
The Kolmogorov-Johnson-Mehl-Avrami model, which is a nucleation and growth poissonian process in space, has been implemented by taking into account spatial correlation among nuclei…
